The NFL is reportedly investigating Nick Bosa after 49ers DE crashed a postgame interview with MAGA

Nick Bosa will face some predictable consequences for his MAGA hat stunt.

After the San Francisco 49ers' victory over the Dallas Cowboys on Sunday, the star defensive end conducted a postgame interview with quarterback Brock Purdy and pointed to a white and gold “Make America Great Again” cap on his head. It wasn't difficult to interpret the message.

However, Bosa declined to elaborate on his statement when speaking to reporters, saying only: “I won't talk about it too much, but I think it's an important time.”

Five days later, CBS Sports' Jonathan Jones and The Washington Post's Mark Maske reported that the NFL was reviewing Bosa's performance for possible disciplinary action. He is not expected to be suspended, but he could face a fine, and the decision won't be made until later next week (read: after all votes have been cast in the 2024 presidential election).

Rule 5, Section 4, Article 8 of the NFL Rules specifically prohibits players from wearing equipment with any political message:

One can imagine a MAGA hat fitting this definition.

Bosa has been one of former President Donald Trump's most visible supporters in the NFL ranks for years and probably won't be too upset about the punishment. He currently has a five-year, $170 million contract.

A four-time Pro Bowler in five seasons since being taken second overall in the 2019 NFL Draft, Bosa has recorded 28 tackles, seven tackles for a loss, 4.5 sacks and one interception in eight games this season.
